E Journal 3 Keeping the Peace: NETS IV and V

Levinson, G.L. (2010). Keeping the peace. learning and leading with technology. L&L—Learning & Leading with Technology, 36(5), Retrieved from http://www.iste.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=March_April_No_6_1&Template=/MembersOnly.cfm&NavMenuID=4516&ContentID=25443&


This E journal is about the difference between old people and young people. Technology is always going to be a touchy subject for schools. Old people do not know how to use the new technology and younger people will know how to get around the older people. In schools technology can get schools in trouble. IM can make kids cheat; can cause problems in the class because the children are paying attention to the IM not the teacher.  This is about a school trying to do the right thing for the children and the children taking advantage of the good thing. The IM should be shut off and let the children use the laptops to help them with the work.
Question 1. What is IM: IM is the Instant Message, this is where you can type something in the IM box and send to someone else and that person can see the message instantly. Like an Email but you do not have to be on an Email cite.
Question 2. What is a Boot-Up-Camp: Each year, our laptop program begins with three mini-workshops that focus on the issues of physical care, guidelines for appropriate use, and ethics. Students travel in small groups and participate in a variety of activities and discussions with teachers and tech staff. They have the chance to ask questions and review key aspects of laptop learning at Nueva.
